A man started to look at us with a same creepy smile he has from the past few days...I've been in this city for almost a week and already I was starting to freak out.

"Hello," he said with a creepy grin.

"Hello..." I said.

Then he left...

The kids stared at him like as if they're in a trance and soon...they went back to their home. To those wondering, I took a babysitting job, gotta make a living while traveling. I know I could have taken a plane but remember, I hate air travel!

Those kids are really annoying, I felt like stuffing my ears with a glue just so I won't have to listen to them talking about whatever girly crap comes to mind. Yeah there's two girls (one of them is adopted since she's Asian and has a Japanese name...what a coincidence considering what happened months ago). I felt bad for the kid, being that he's the youngest of the three and have to deal with two older sisters and one of them was brought into the family from an orphanage somewhere, wherever the hell it is.

It's that close to being felt like stuck in a shoujo story, would have been the case if it wasn't for Eric. Sucks to be him, that's for certain.

Anyway remembering that people whom are strangely normal are possible psychopaths, I figure that I could investigate a bit. The way he looked at us was unnerving, he could be a child molester or a murderer, maybe I'm just being paranoid but his smile reminded me of a character from "Monster", it's that scary.

The kids parents finally return from one of the business trips and I was glad it's over, but at the same time I knew something should be done about their creepy neighbor. So the next day I waited behind the bush for the man to come out of his house so that I could follow him. Come out as he did and follow him I did as well, good thing he didn't own a car...

As I held up a newspaper so avoid attracting suspicions, I saw an article that caught my attention and nearly forgot what I was supposed to do until I bumped into someone.

"Hey watch it!" yelled a yuppie.

I saw the dude entering Walgreens, so I went in to see what he's up to. He was buying some cough medicine, a bag of Ruffles, and a bag of mini-Snickers.

So far nothing suspicious about that...

Still after it was over, I kept my eye out on him just in case. I followed him to the church where he donated a check and left.

So far, nothing out of the ordinary...

He headed back home and so I called it a day.

Then the next morning, I overslept and woke up at 10:55!

After leaving the motel, I went to check on the person when I realize that he already left. It's easy to tell since he posted a sign on the door that read, "Do not enter!"

I figured that it could be the perfect opportunity to check inside to see what might have went on when...

I accepted his invitation and he turned out to be a nice person although a bit creepy. He asked me why people have been trying to avoid him for the past few months.

Feeling guilty, I told him the reason why and how I thought he might have been a psychotic killer. He laughed and said, "That's what it's about? That's really something!"

I laughed and said, "I know, maybe you should open up, I know I'm usually not a social person but still, getting out more can help even though you did won a lotto some time ago."

"How did you know?"

"Well you didn't seem to have a job and your house has tons of nice things,"

He laughed and said, "Yes it's true!"

Then he asked me to check out something in the basement.

I went down there and heard something eery...

run...

get away...

kill me...

"What the hell?"

I turned on the light and to my horror...I saw several bloody faces pinned to the wall!

Then I heard some footsteps behind me and I turned to see the crazy man trying to plunge a knife toward me. I avoid it and grabbed his arm, forcing him to let go before proceeding to push him to the drainage pipe.

He got up and said, "You have learned my secret, I will add you to my beautiful collection of my precious death masks so they won't alone...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"Hell I won't!" I yelled.

I knocked him down and ran upstairs to escape. Why I didn't bring my gun along, I don't know so you can say that it bit me in the ass as you'll know why.

I ran to the payphone to call the police and told the operator what was happening. The operator thought I was on drugs but decided to send the report fortunately.

Once that was done, I started to wait for the police to arrive when the face collector came out with a crossbow.

"DIE!" he screamed.

Then I took an arrow in the knee...
